Monthly Book Discussion @The Edith Wheeler Memorial Library

This month's selection is The Sandcastle Girls by Chris Bohjalian.

“A compelling new novel that is part love story, part history lesson. . . . An eye-opening tale of longing and discovery. . . . A bittersweet reflection on hope even in the darkest circumstances. . . . [The Sandcastle Girls] is about the ways the past informs the present, about the pain but also the richness of heritage.” —The Miami Herald
